Mac – multiple desktops

By

I’ve been using MacBook Pros for well over a decade. However, it was only this week that I discovered the multiple desktops feature.

A bit late to the party, but I’m definitely making up for lost time. This feature was definitely designed for me. I didn’t know it existed until Tuesday this week. But now that I’ve found it, I’m mighty glad to have it.

Cafe-Restaurant de Plantage

By

Always a pleasure to visit.

The menu has changed since I was last there, which was sometime before the pandemic.

This new menu is also good. Heavily influenced by North African cuisine. I had the falafel, which was amazing.

The old dessert menu seems to have survived, though. The churros are still there. I would go to this restaurant solely for those churros. Even so, the whole menu is a big hit.

Connemara 12 Y

By

Enjoying the Connemara 12 Y this evening.

This particular dram shatters a few perceptions.

Ireland is generally not known for peated whiskies, but it does have some surprises, such as this one.

And there’s also the (incorrect) perception that peated whiskies are generally dark in colour. Not so this one. One of the lightest whiskies I’ve come across.

Peat aside, you also get some citrus notes, plus a bit of green apple.

It’s a gentle whiskey for a quiet Sunday night. Perfect for tonight.

(For more on peated whiskies, see this article over at my other place.)
